Arnold Clark, Europe’s largest independent, family-run car company, has elevated its partnership with The PGA by becoming an official Partner of the Association.

Arnold Clark has been a proud sponsor of the Tartan Tour, The PGA in Scotland’s Order of Merit series, for the last two years and has since enjoyed a strong relationship with The PGA.

As a PGA Partner, Arnold Clark is looking to build on that relationship and will continue to support grassroots golf, while providing a range of excellent benefits to PGA Members.

PGA Members have previously benefited from car leasing deals thanks to a long-term partnership with BMW Park Lane. However, The PGA is pleased to develop its relationship with Arnold Clark that means its Members will be able to enjoy exclusive discounts on car leasing deals which covers every make and model and includes free delivery.

David Cooper, Chief Retail Finance and Leasing Officer at Arnold Clark, said: “After the huge success of our sponsorship of the Tartan Tour, we’re delighted to elevate this to become a PGA Partner. We’re excited to have the opportunity to continue to build connections within the world of golf and hopefully our sponsorship will inspire a new generation of golfing stars.

“At Arnold Clark, we offer genuine value for money and provide customer service of the highest level. If you have any car or van-related issues, we’re here to help.”

With over 60 years’ experience in the industry, Arnold Clark sell almost 300,000 cars a year, with over 200 locations across the UK. They provide customers with a wide variety of choice and value, with more than 20,000 used and new cars/vans in stock at any one time. As well as providing servicing, Arnold Clark also has a car and van rental department and fleet division for any and all car-related needs.

Commenting the new partnership, Richard Barker, PGA Executive Director – Business Development, said: “We are delighted to elevate this exciting partnership with Arnold Clark. We have seen this relationship flourish over the past two years with Arnold Clark sponsoring our hugely popular Tartan Tour in Scotland.

“We look forward to working with David Cooper and the team at Arnold Clark and we hope our Membership takes advantage of the new benefits available to them through one of Europe’s most renowned and progressive car companies.”

David Longmuir, Manager – The PGA in Scotland, added: “I am delighted that Arnold Clark have extended and enhanced their relationship with The PGA. The ‘Arnold Clark Tartan Tour’ has been a hugely successful element of this partnership and we look forward to another exciting season of golf at some great venues across Scotland, culminating in the Arnold Clark Tour Final at the Kings Course, Gleneagles in October.”
